What are Indian DB swings?

[canthar]

@richcottrell Here is a video my friend Marcus made for them. It's a competitive movement in the Indian traditional games. They will use 30-35kg bells in training and compete with 40kg.

Thanks for that video on the Indian style DB swings.   While I have seen videos of those being done in India, I never looked into the whole reasoning behind them.   I had basically written off the whole exercise as stupid.    now after watching Marcus's video, I feel informed.   Not as silly as I thought    Not at all  

Next time I am around fixed weight Dumbbells I will have to give them a try. 

Thanks ,
